Being a native Texan, I have football on my list of most favorite things. I also...

Gabriel

...you catch my drift :) I have taught and tutored children as young as 5 up through college aged folk as well. My parents are both professors so I guess I was bitten at an early age with the education bug. Like them, I think that the keys to unlocking the most fruitful learning experiences are: Patience, Passion and Listening - on the both the part of the student and the instructor. Its my pleasure...

I have worked as a tutor for over two years with English as a Second Language (ESL) students at the high school level.

Frank

...For me, there is nothing more personally rewarding that seeing the mental "light bulb" turn on in a students eyes when they grasp a difficult concept for the first time. My tutoring philosophy is to teach concepts, rather than focusing on memorization. Concepts are best grasped via a methodical, logical, and consistent approach to problem solving. As such, my favorite subjects to tutor are most math classes (elementary math, all algebra levels, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus,...

Romin

...name is Romin Stuart-Rasi. I am a 23 year old physics major. My favorite physics subject would have to be gravity (general relativity). I fell in love with the subject at 16, and I will be doing research in quantum gravity. I've tutored for over 2 years now, and I have picked up many different techniques in order to handle the various learning styles students have. My main tutoring approach is to look at how...

Maria

...they did not have anybody and a lot of students were asking for help; the school contacted me and offered me the job. I had never tutored anybody before I started, but I decided to give it a try since I am very friendly and outgoing and it worked out so well that I stayed with the program until the day I graduated. Tutoring, for me, is a way to share the knowledge I have...

...second language. More often than not, my students have left me feeling more confident and better equipped to read and write in the English language. With a Bachelor's degree in Journalism from Rutgers University, and a Master's of Fine Arts in Fiction Writing from Sarah Lawrence College, I hope to convey to my students what it feels like to be passionate about a subject. Currently, I'm a Features Editor for a fashion and lifestyle magazine....

Shelly

...not only to help students understand subjects that they may be struggling with, but to help them cultivate a interest in and passion for the material itself. Understanding and ability in a subject is great, but a true desire for knowledge outside of the classwork itself creates a student driven by curiosity and interest instead of just wanting to pass the class. In my free time, I work at the Osteological Research and Processing Laboratory...
